When Search Engine Page Rank Goes Bad (What Can We Do?)
Recently, Google has moved my Mac Mini Media Center page out of the top 17 pages of search results when one searches for "mac mini media center."
Although for years (2006-2010) my web page devoted to this topic was ranked number 1 in the world, it is now relegated to page 18 of Google's rankings. I'm not writing this post out of hurt feelings. I don't believe that my web page will, or should, maintain top ranking forever. I just don't think that the vast majority of web pages that are in front of mine deliver the specific content that people are actually looking for when they search for "mac mini media center." Perhaps, I'm wrong.
Let's look at a few links that DID make page 1 of those results and what those web sites actually cover:
There is no doubt in my mind that Google is the best search engine in the world, but what can one do when something like this happens? Is there anything that I can do to get my site looked at by Google and re-evaluated? I would love to receive any relevant information on this topic.

UPDATE: It looks like my page is moving back up through the rankings. It is now on page 7 of Google's results for "Mac Mini Media Center." I'm still curious as to why it so quickly crashed to such a low page rank, and why it is now moving back up.
